章節 137: King of Snow(1)

After the decisive battle with the Messenian lord, Maesinius swiftly consolidated his victory. His terms were generous, offering leniency and security to those who had opposed him. The defeated lords, recognizing the futility of further resistance and the wisdom in aligning with the first prince, bent the knee one by one. Maesinius, ever the statesman, accepted their fealty with grace, ensuring they retained their lands and status under his rule.Except for the title of High Marshall, that was obviously deprived as the prince would never allow a man to keep such a fertile and important land under his control. 

In just a single day, word of the prince's victory and fair treatment spread rapidly. The entirety of the province, fell to him. By the day's end, the Messenian province was firmly under the banner of the first prince, his authority unquestioned.
